Abstract:

Engineering chemistry is a basic disciplinary course for the students majored in energy and environmental systems engineering. The aim of this course is to promote the capacity for independent thinking and solving the practical problems using chemistry knowledge. Herein, a detailed educational analysis and practice of the course set up in our faculty is described. The extracurricular tutorship and the examination of course are also focused. Due to the contradiction between limited lecture hours and overloaded teaching assignment, we revise course content, teaching methods and the curriculum system of engineering chemistry. In addition, experimental teaching is expanded and optimized. This paper proposes a new teaching philosophy. And the teaching quality of engineering chemistry has been improved.

Key words: Engineering chemistry, Teaching reform, Flipped classroom, Scientific research back feeding teaching
